JDBC API settings include basic request information, placeholders, output parameters, check points (assertions), and connection pool settings. They are widely used in test scenarios using the JDBC protocol, scenarios where you need to extract data from responses by checking output parameters, or scenarios where you need to determine whether responses are desired from the business perspective by considering check points.
The basic request information of the JDBC API includes the database type, test URL, and SQL statements.
To define placeholders for JDBC test requests, you must specify the keys and values on the Placeholders tab of each JDBC API.
To define connection pool settings for JDBC test requests, you must specify the parameters on the Connection Pool Settings tab of each JDBC API.
The output parameter feature is often used to extract data from responses to determine whether requests are successful from the business perspective.
In actual stress testing scenarios, check points are often used to determine whether requests are successful from the business perspective.
